Virgin America Helps Get You Lucky Through Seat-To-Seat Service

We know when you’re preparing for air travel, there are some things that run through your mind: did I forget my tooth brush? Should I bring cologne / perfume? Will I get lucky? Virgin America can’t help you with the first two problems, but they can now help you with the third issue.

Virgin America just launched a new service from Los Angeles to Las Vegas earlier this week, which is being used to roll out a new in-flight system which allows passengers to send anyone on their flight a drink, meal or snack. The seat-to-seat service is being introduced as a way for total strangers to treat one another to a delicious treat, which will hopefully engage in some kind of conversation through the in-flight system’s seat-to-seat chat and maybe even speaking face to face, that is, if whoever you sent the treat to isn’t married or repulsed by your offer.

Virgin America is also asking for people’s seat-to-seat experience from these flights by writing on their Facebook page, which would enter them to possibly win prizes that include flights and a stay at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. For the sake of the Internet, we hope there are some truly horrid stories published in the coming weeks.

We’re sure there’s a joke of having an airline called Virgin America helping its customers get lucky somewhere. What do you think?
